But I do think that the buy-and-hold strategy married with mutual funds is a losing proposition. And the data proves that to be correct. I believe if you are in the market you should be an active investor who does their own basic company analysis and lives with the results of their decisions, uses basic sell strategies to stop market losses at their risk tolerance level and keeps adding to their dividend income portfolio. The last part I have come to recently and wish I had done it earlier in my investing career! You are right about these folks and their critiques of buy-and-hold.

That statement is the key. Every asset class has its place, but its importance and significance is different. Investors need to employ them accordingly.

The people who don't like buy and hold are mostly people who never stick to one strategy. They go from one strategy to another in search of gold, only to keep losing money in the process. In addition to that, what is the alternative to buy and hold investing that would work for the average working joe? Actively managed funds? Hedge funds? But these are already failing to even beat the S&P 500.. Nice article. The people who don’t like buy and hold are mostly people who never stick to one strategy.
